Request for PICS: LED interior lights

I am thinking of getting map/dome/door lights from http://www.ledautomotive.com/ but I can't decide whether to get white or blue or red. Any opinions or (even better,) pictures? Thanks

You have a tan interior, anything but white would look like ass in my opinion. No pictures for reference though.

I've got blue door lights and dome light. I'd take a pic but it's raining out. I might be able to later though. It looks good IMO.

See, with a black interior, you have so many more choices, red or blue FTMFW.

yea, but if your stuck like me with tan interior but want blue... go find yourself a salvaged tl with black interior. thats if you can get one without being charge a ridiculous amount. just get white. i like my white with my tints. unlock and u see this mellow white cuz of the tints. once u open the door, its like.. bright (not enough to blind you tho.)

Interior... WHITE WHITE WHITE.
If you're feeling colorful, I guess you could do the doors blue, since they don't really do anything. I did my doors, map, dome, trunk, and license plate in white. I love the brightness!

Now these pictures are very crappy. It was cold out and I didn't feel like playing around with settings on the camera. The camera picks up the hyperwhite led as blue. To the human eye, it is pure white. I tried to correct the color as quickly and simply as possible in Photoshop.
Unedited, from camera


Edited to get mostly color visible to human eye


Edited color, but NOT brightness. This is a true representation of the brightness of the interior w/ LED's in map lights and dome.


Hope this sort of kinda helps a bit? lol.

I also did mine blue for the Dome Light, Door Courtesy Lights & Map Lights. I think the blue or the white is the best way to go.
